Aspen Dental

Aspen Dental, officially known as Aspen Dental Management, Inc. (ADMI), is a leading American Dental Support Organization (DSO) headquartered in Chicago, Illinois. Established in 1998 by Robert Fontana, Aspen Dental has grown into a vast network supporting over 1,100 independently owned and operated Aspen Dental-branded dental locations across numerous states. The core mission of Aspen Dental is to break down barriers to quality and Affordable dental care, making it more accessible to a wider population, including those who may not have a regular dental provider or face financial constraints. While the individual Aspen Dental practices are independently owned and operated by licensed dentists who retain clinical autonomy, ADMI provides a comprehensive suite of administrative and business support services. This includes assistance with marketing, operations, training, human resources, finance, and technology, effectively allowing dentists to focus primarily on delivering patient care without the complexities of running a business. Aspen Dental offers a wide range of Dental Services, addressing various Oral Health needs. These services typically include general dentistry such as comprehensive dental exams, check-ups, and cleanings. They are also well-known for their expertise in Dentures, offering various types including full, partial, and implant-supported dentures, often with on-site labs for quick turnaround and a denture money-back guarantee. Other key services include Dental Implants, emergency dental care for issues like toothaches and broken teeth, Clear Aligners (Motto® Clear Aligners), and specialty services like oral surgery (extractions, wisdom teeth removal) and endodontics (root canal therapy). Aspen Dental's business model, particularly its Practice Ownership Program (POP), empowers dentists to achieve practice ownership with the backing of a robust support system. This model provides a structured path for clinicians to become successful business owners, fostering professional growth and leadership within the organization. The company is committed to continuous investment in its clinicians through training facilities, mentorship programs, and ongoing education. Furthermore, Aspen Dental actively engages in community initiatives, such as the "Healthy Mouth Movement," which provides free dental care to U.S. veterans and underserved populations. This commitment reflects their dedication to making a tangible impact on oral health accessibility nationwide.
